Reverse description Upright anchor displayed centrally in the field, serving as the principal civic emblem of Apollonia Pontika; the Greek letter alpha (Α) appears to the left of the anchor shank, and a crayfish (astacus) is depicted to the right. The composition is characteristic of Apollonian bronze coinage of the 4th century BC, with the anchor referencing the city's maritime identity.
